Laptop Screen Repair

Blank screen? Accidentally damaged the display by dropping the laptop or dropping something on it? We can help. Whether it’s an Apple or Microsoft laptop with a cracked or chipped screen, or a display that’s not working at all, we can replace it.

Most modern laptops to a decent specification cost a minimum of around £400 new while new Apple laptops such as the MacBook Air start at around £1000 – even the cheapest Mac desktop computer kicks off at £700. On top of this, you’ll have to worry about data transfers from the old laptop to the new if total replacement is required, not to mention the general upheaval of switching to a new computer.

Dead Laptop? Pay less than half the cost of a new machine.

You can have the screen replaced with a brand new one saving you time and money: we have several new screens in stock available so reducing your downtime through having no laptop. If you have an uncommon laptop screen, we can order it especially for you.

Once we’ve replaced your screen, we’ll ensure your laptop is working properly again with professional testing and stressing of your machine.

Faulty DC Power Socket

Having trouble charging up your laptop? It may have a faulty power socket. We can repair or replace these easily and fully test it for function and safety.

Laptop Screen Repair

Cracked or broken screen? We can replace your screen with one to a high specification that looks and performs as good as new.

Windows or Mac OS won’t boot

If Windows or Mac OS won’t boot you might have a corrupted operating system, a failing hard drive, or a virus problem. We can help here and restore your data.

Overheating Laptop

A hot laptop might mean your fan isn’t working properly so endangering your motherboard and likely causing performance issues to the point where, if your laptop is running too hot, it might shut down. We can fix and clean the fans and investigate other possible causes of overheating.

Macbook Repair

We are Oxford’s leading, certified Apple Mac repair centre and our Apple Mac repairs conform to Apple’s high standards.

Faulty Keyboard / Touchpad

A faulty laptop keyboard can often be the result of liquid damage or – in the case of dead keys – hard use over a long period. A faulty touchpad can be a consequence of a number of possible faults like driver or hardware issues: there’s a good chance we can help, so contact us today.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 4. CA's response to my email was very quick and the technician was knowledgale, professional and heloful.  I couldn't ask for better.
3.  I have now bought a new computer through Computer Assistance.  I knew that they would know what would be best for me and my business as they have been sorting out tech problems for me over the years.  They researched what they thought would be best, and then talked the options through with me.  So much better than going into a shop and buying 'blind' from someone who does not know you.  As always, I am delighted with the result.
2. I went again with another problem and they dealt with it quickly and at a very reasonable price. They are so reliable.
1. I can always rely on Computer Assistance to sort out any tech problems, however complicated. They not only sort them out but also explain clearly what the problems were.  This time it proved to be a more complicated problem, but they just went on until it was sorted.  A great bunch of people with great IT skills and a friendly environment.  I've been using them for years.

I was in panic mode when I got hacked this week. Needn’t have worried. Peter and Jimi came up trumps, and got my Facebook/Messenger accounts on iPad and smartphone safe once again. And better still, it was at less cost than I expected. Thank you gentlemen for your expertise .
